Because of the arrival of reinforcements, the soldiers trapped in the arsenal have come to the spirit, under the front and back attacks, Arthur's men and horses suffered heavy losses, the pirates died and wounded, and the mourning was all over the field, just about twenty minutes, basically announced the end of the battle, Lord Arthur didn't know whose bullet he was hit, right in the eyebrows, and he didn't even have time to send out the last emotion and received a box lunch, and the pirate leader of the Golden Islands, who had been talked about and had changed color, died under the random gun.

Soon the news that the pirates had been cleaned up spread around, and the islanders who were hiding in the depths of the island returned to their residences one after another, and the pirate turmoil was over, and the Imperial army had basically no casualties except for a few casualties at the beginning, which can be said to be a complete victory.

The problem of the pirates is solved, but the storm on Paradise Island has just begun, and in addition to investigating why these pirates from the Golden Isles took such a big risk to attack Paradise Island, there are other equally important things that need to be investigated, such as the arsenal.

Because Sandro, the commander of the island guard, was killed by the pirates, he had to find the answer from the mouths of the other soldiers of the guard, but the soldiers of the escort insisted that the construction of the arsenal was Sandrow's intention, and no one dared to ask more in normal times, so why did Sandro secretly build an arsenal on Paradise Island, whether there was any ulterior secret behind it, and whether he was instructed by anyone, it is not known at present.

According to Duke Philip's meaning, it is impossible for those soldiers of the escort team not to know the secrets of the arsenal, even if ordinary soldiers don't know, at least Sandro's former adjutants must know, so as long as they are arrested and interrogated strictly, they must be able to ask something, but several of Sandro's adjutants have said that they really don't know, because Sandro once trusted the most adjutant has been bombarded to the bottom of the sea by Caesar when the pirates first came to Paradise Island, Either they had recently been promoted, or they weren't that close to Sandro, but in a word, they were doing what they were told, and they didn't know anything else.

At the same time, Duke Jackson and Duke Thomas both strongly disagreed with the strict interrogation, saying that the soldiers of the Island Guard had just finished defending against pirates and had contributed to the defense of Paradise Island, and if they were arrested and interrogated at this time, in case of any accidents, they would be subject to gossip or even mutiny.

For the meaning of Duke Thomas and Duke Jackson, other magnates have expressed their agreement, in fact, they also know that the secret establishment of the arsenal is a big deal, and it is unlikely that the commander of a small island escort will dare to do it, but the so-called more is better than less, none of them want to get involved in this troubled water, even if they want to investigate this matter, at least wait until they return to the empire.

In addition to the secret arsenal, the death of Caesar, the new governor of Paradise Island, also shocked the magnates, according to the island's soldiers, Caesar led people to besiege the arsenal that day, and then suddenly was killed, but he did not die of gunshot wounds, but was shot to death by a slender flying needle, so slender flying needles were coated with poison.

Because Caesar was recommended by Duke Philip to His Majesty the Queen to serve on Paradise Island, so it is his person, but he was killed in such a short time after arriving on Paradise Island, Duke Philip was naturally very angry, and he said to Duke Jackson: "Lord Duke, it is not a trivial matter for the governor of the imperial territory to be assassinated, and the former governor James is now life and death, why is this small paradise island so peaceful?" ”

Duke Jackson said faintly: "Your question is also the question I want to ask, but if we want to know the answer to the question now, we have to investigate it ourselves." ”

"Well, what the Duke said is very true, but should we investigate this Sandro first? Where do you think he dared to secretly build an arsenal on Paradise Island? What does he want to do? ”

"I'm afraid you'll have to ask him that question yourself, isn't he lying there now?"

Duke Philip sneered twice, "Lord Duke, this is a joke, how can a dead man open his mouth?" But although the dead can't open their mouths, the living can speak, Lord Duke, do you know about the arsenal before? ”

Duke Philip's question made the magnates present tremble, and they all looked sideways at Duke Jackson, Duke Jackson's face turned pale, and he asked Duke Philip coldly: "What do you mean by this?" ”

Duke Philip smiled and said: "It's not interesting, I just think it's strange, that Sandro building an arsenal on Paradise Island is definitely not a matter of one or two days, why didn't the then governor James never find out?" Or was it because he suddenly found out later that he was assassinated? Sandro is the commander of the Island Guard, and the Duke was previously the commander of the Imperial Expeditionary Force, and he was appointed by you personally, and it would be difficult for you to say that you were completely unaware of it, and I am afraid it would be difficult for you to ......."

Duke Philip stopped before he finished speaking, he looked at Duke Jackson waiting for his explanation, Duke Jackson smashed his mouth and said: "I understand, Duke Philip means that I asked Sandro to secretly establish the arsenal on Paradise Island, the assassination of Governor James, and the assassination of Governor Caesar were all done at my behest, right?" ”

"Haha, I didn't mean that, Lord Duke, don't think about it."

Seeing that the atmosphere was tense and embarrassing, Duke Thomas on the side hurriedly said: "Now we have just arrived at Paradise Island, and we have just cleared out the pirates, and many things have not been figured out, so we should not rush to conclusions, I believe that with our investigation, everything can find a reasonable explanation." ”

Duke Philip and Duke Jackson both stopped questioning each other for the time being, and Duke Jackson asked General Vogtson to quickly gather the soldiers of the island guard, and then arrange for people to carefully inspect the island to see if there were any fish that had slipped through the net.

Duke Jackson then arranged for the magnates to live in the Governor's Palace, but Duke Philip proposed that he did not want to live in the Governor's Palace, and said in a strange way that he did not want to see the methods of the Assassins on Paradise Island, and Duke Jackson did not say anything, and finally let Duke Philip live on the flagship by himself.

To be honest, I didn't expect the situation to change so quickly, Paradise Island returned to its original state almost in a very short time, those pirates from the Golden Isles came with a bang, and they were scattered as soon as they set off the waves, the whole process was like a ridiculous farce, but I knew that although this farce was over, the bigger farce was yet to come.

After taking everyone back to the rum distillery, everyone began to clean up the mess left behind by the pirates' destruction, I took out a pill and gave it to An An, and it didn't take long for An An to feel much better, Ding Ying asked me a little incredulously: "Where did you get this pill from?" ”

I smiled wryly twice and said, "Where else can you come from?" Got it from your friends, of course. ”

"Robert?"

"Hmm," I nodded, "our previous guess was correct, your colleague Robert is also on this paradise island, and I suspect that a lot of what happened before has something to do with him." ”

"But, but he", although Ding Ying had guessed Robert's possibility before, but after really confirming that it was Robit, she still didn't want to believe it in her heart.
